You mean you need dynamic authorization.
In order to do this.
1.You need to add two more tables(Except identity tables).
- AppContent (Columns:{Id, Resource, Function,Description})
- RoleRights (Columns:{Id, RoleName,AppContentId).
2.Create CustomAuthorizeAttribute
[AttributeUsageAttribute(AttributeTargets.Class | AttributeTargets.Method, Inherited = true, AllowMultiple = true)]
public class CustomAuthorize : AuthorizeAttribute
{
//Custom named parameters for annotation
public string Source { get; set; }//Controller Name
public string Function { get; set; }//Action Name
protected override bool AuthorizeCore(HttpContextBase httpContext)
{
//Is user logged in?
if (httpContext.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
{
if ((!string.IsNullOrEmpty(ResourceKey)) && (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(OperationKey)))
{
//There are many ways to store and validate RoleRights
//1.You can store in Database and validate from Database.
//2.You can store in user claim at the time of login and validate from UserClaims.
//3.You can store in session validate from session
//Below I am using database approach.
var loggedInUserRoles = ((ClaimsIdentity) httpContext.User.Identity).Claims
.Where(c => c.Type == ClaimTypes.Role)
.Select(c => c.Value);
//logic to check loggedInUserRoles has rights or not from RoleRights table
return db.RoleRights.Any( x=> x.AppContent.Source == Source && x.AppContent.Function == Function && loggedInUserRoles.Contains( x.AppContent.RoleName));
}
}
//Returns true or false, meaning allow or deny. False will call HandleUnauthorizedRequest above
return base.AuthorizeCore(httpContext);
}
//Called when access is denied
protected override void HandleUnauthorizedRequest(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
{
//User isn't logged in
if (!filterContext.HttpContext.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
{
base.HandleUnauthorizedRequest(filterContext);
return;
}
//User is logged in but has no access
else
{
filterContext.Result = new RedirectToRouteResult(
new RouteValueDictionary(new { controller = "Account", action = "NotAuthorized" })
);
}
}
public override void OnAuthorization(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
{
// Check for authorization
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(this.Source) && string.IsNullOrEmpty(this.Function))
{
this.Source = filterContext.ActionDescriptor.ControllerDescriptor.ControllerName;
this.Function = filterContext.ActionDescriptor.ActionName;
}
base.OnAuthorization(filterContext);
}
}
3. Assign CustomAuthorizeAttribute to the Controller Action
[CustomAuthorize(Source= "Branch", Function = "Index")]
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View(model);
}
[CustomAuthorize(Source = "Branch", Function = "Details")]
public ActionResult Details(long? id)
{
return View(branch);
}
[CustomAuthorize(Source = "Branch", Function = "Create")]
public ActionResult Create()
{
return View();
}
4.Setup all of your application content like Source(Controller) and Function(Action) in AppContent table.
5.Assign AppContents to a role for allowing to role to access this content.
6.Assign User to Role.
7.Run the application and test.
